As far back as I can remember my dad put on performances, which included magic, art, hypnotism and music. As each of his children became physically and mentally able and dad discovered what our talents were he would use us in different parts of his performance. First time on stage I was four years old singing, YOU AIN’T NOTHING BUT A HOUNDDOG. Well that was the beginning of my musical experience and I just kept going and growing from that time.

After my life changing experience I was not sure what exactly the Lord wanted me to do with my new life. I knew I liked music and felt lead to serve the Lord in whatever way He so called. So I asked the Lord to show me what I should be doing with my talents and gifts. One night in church three people prayed about talents and gifts. I felt led in my heart to join the choir. After being in the choir for a while I was asked to go share the Gospel in song at other venues.

I have been singing since I was three years old, when my dad put me up in front of the church to sing “Jesus Loves Me”. I have sung for so many weddings and funerals in the Spartanburg and surrounding counties that are too many to number. My training in music came mostly from the Hymn Festivals that Southern Baptist used to hold for the children and junior chorus. They really taught kids how to sing.

Although never formerly trained, I’ve had many years of extensive hands on experience with different sound systems in various churches. I love music and being a part of the Gospel that is shared through music. My expertise are in sound systems and not vocal. I came to “2 – R – MORE” Gospel Music Ministries as sort of a package deal. My wife joined the group in January of 2001 and I came along to offer my assistance to run the sound system.
